Inside the authors discuss: " How to merge the Common Core State Standards and local curriculum in English Language Arts and Mathematics " The challenges that educators face at local schools and in their communities " A way for school district and school leaders to take advantage of the diversity among faculty, parents and students to differentiate instruction and achieve higher levels of mastery for all students " Multicultural issues, school improvement systems and public policy changes that must be addressed This book provides practical advice, examples, and design considerations that are modifiable for any culture, school, or district that is serious about being part of the new age of American achievement and prosperity.
